BXBX NOVEL Chapter 662: Solo to Chorus!
Chapter 662: Solo to Chorus!
Of course, after turning into Sword Hearts, the power of the Sword Prisons was greatly diminished, certainly not as formidable as in their prime.
But its explosive power was still enough to execute a Sovereign of the Celestial Court!
Yun Xiao even felt a tinge of regret. He should have retained half of the Sword Hearts.
About 5,000 Sword Hearts would have been enough to finish off the Nine Thunders Sovereign!
After all, many of these Sword Hearts belonged to Sword Immortals close to the power of the Nine Thunders Sovereign.
With one stroke, the Nine Thunders Sovereign was extinguished!
Be it the Nine Extreme Thunder Seed, or the Supreme Everlasting Thunder Cauldrons… in front of absolute power, they could not withstand a single blow!
The Nine Thunders Sovereign died in utter astonishment… In the moment before his death, he couldn’t comprehend it."What is this..." His agonized spirit, before fading into oblivion, voiced the same question as the others, and thereafter, transformed into a Buddha\'s Treasure, which was absorbed by Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao\'s sword shattered the heavens and silenced the thunder!
As he stepped over the remains of the Nine Thunders Sovereign, everything began to calm down.
Yet behind Yun Xiao, the hearts of Yue Yin, Cao Shuo, and Gu Suwan were caught in a tumultuous tremor.
Their lips slightly parted, eyes widened in disarray, and breath halted!
It was a scalp-numbing, knee-buckling sensation. They felt like they were floating above the clouds, their bodies turning into air…
These three distinct women, at this moment, whether in demeanor, gesture, or gaze, even the quivering of their lips, were exactly the same.
"T-the…. Nine, Nine Thunders Sovereign..." Yue Yin, who didn\'t belong to the Thunder Department, was the first to recover.
She stared blankly at Yun Xiao, her dazed eyes slowly filling with a crazed devotion.
In her eyes, the youth before her, bare-chested with perfect muscles, was no longer a boy but a towering supreme deity, melting all the frost on her body.
And Gu Suwan was the most shaken of them all.
Gu Suwan knew better than anyone the stature of the Nine Thunders Sovereign, the master of the Thunder Department, a giant of the Celestial Court, a revered elder she looked up to!
And yet, he was annihilated by a youth with a single strike!
Even if it was with the borrowed power of the Sword Hearts, that very sword pierced through Gu Suwan\'s own heart, subjugating her completely as tears streamed down her face.
Before, there had been fear, but now, like Yue Yin, she was convinced that Yun Xiao would soon turn the Great Dao Celestial Realm upside down.
No one could stand in his way!
Seeing was believing, after all!
Exhaling deeply, the two women felt as though they were in a steamy cauldron, both feverish and exhausted.
Meanwhile, Cao Shuo, accustomed to being stunned, reacted with less surprise and more acceptance.
She patted her sisters on their backs, laughing, "Did I not tell you?"
Yue Yin and Gu Suwan, speechless, could only nod in dazed agreement.
Their eyes could no longer stray from the youth.
At this moment, Yun Xiao was discussing the next steps with Blue Star and Red Moon.
"So this Seed of Creation is of no use to me?" Hearing this, Yun Xiao felt a hint of disappointment. He had been fond of the human flesh talent it represented.
The thought of splitting into nine to surround his foes seemed incredibly cool to him—this Seed of Creation felt like the coolest he had encountered so far.
Blue Star explained, "This thing is about division, but your true essence is about unity. You could absorb it, but it would only be somewhat useful short-term and would limit your future growth if you divided into nine bodies."
"Alright then." Yun Xiao was nonchalant. If it was of no use, he wouldn’t force it.
But then, Blue Star added, "It might be useless for you, but it could be useful for someone else."
"Can I transfer this talent to someone else?" Yun Xiao asked, puzzled.
"Aren’t you and Cao Shuo deeply connected through the Primordial Yin-Yang Thunder Cauldron? In a way, she’s almost like an extension of you, and also a Martial Immortal. With your help, her Yin Thunder Furnace could probably absorb this Seed of Creation," Blue Star suggested.
With that, Yun Xiao began to ponder.
He did indeed want to cultivate a trustworthy ally in this Great Dao Celestial Realm.
Cao Shuo was the perfect candidate, but her innate talent wasn’t on par with the highest echelons of the Celestial Court. Just relying on the Primordial Yin-Yang Thunder Furnace seemed somewhat inadequate.
"How do we proceed?" Yun Xiao had only ever transferred a Seed of Creation to Moon Fairy and the War Princess before.
"First absorb it, then through the bridge of the Primordial Yin-Yang Thunder Furnace, channel it into her Yin Thunder Furnace. You’ll need to control the process carefully, otherwise, she might explode," Blue Star chuckled.
"Ah, I\'m so jealous!" Red Moon exclaimed through clenched teeth, envy laced in every word.
Yun Xiao, although a bit speechless, was not embarrassed.
"Thunder Emissary Cao, come here," Yun Xiao suddenly called out, turning his head.
Just then, the Azure Rain Sword Vessel had landed on the Nine Thunders Divine Ark, and three distinctively styled women stepped out.
Apart from Cao Shuo, the two flanking her bowed their heads slightly, showing their reverence.
"What’s up?" Cao Shuo asked.
"Come with me for a moment," Yun Xiao said casually, scooping up the Nine Thunder Sovereign\'s Seed of Creation as he spoke to Gu Suwan and Yue Yin, "You two wait here for a bit."
"Mhm." The two nodded quickly.
After having just killed the Nine Thunders Sovereign, Yun Xiao now wanted a private meeting with Cao Shuo? They were both quite puzzled.
"So secretive," Cao Shuo muttered, biting her lip as she followed Yun Xiao into the Nine Thunders Divine Ark.
As soon as they entered, Yun Xiao turned around and, without a word, tore at the hem of Cao Shuo\'s dress.
"Are you that backed up? It hasn\'t even been a day!" Cao Shuo gasped, her lips parting, her tongue frozen in mid-air, her heart racing.
"What, not in the mood?" Yun Xiao asked, raising an eyebrow.
Cao Shuo coughed softly, her head bowed in a shy whisper, "Let the storm come more fiercely... and with more lightning."
"I’ll electrify you!"
▬ι══✧⚰️✧══ι▬
Back on the deck of the Nine Thunders Divine Ark.
Yue Yin and Gu Suwan finally relaxed a bit.
"He’s too powerful," Gu Suwan said, still somewhat dazed, looking at Yue Yin.
"Mhm," Yue Yin nodded, "A real monster."
They were in agreement.
Without saying much more, they both knew they were truly in the same boat now.
To break the awkward silence, Gu Suwan changed the subject, "I wonder, right after slaying the Nine Thunders Sovereign, why did he want to see Cao Shuo alone?"
"Probably some secret discussion they can’t let us know about yet…" Yue Yin said somewhat disheartened.
Did that mean they weren’t fully trusted?
They exchanged a glance, both feeling a bit down.
However, just then, the Nine Thunders Divine Ark began to shake, accompanied by Cao Shuo’s unmistakable loud moans.
They knew that sound all too well...
Both women stood frozen in place.
Peering inside, they saw the Nine Thunders Divine Ark aglow with electric waves, pulsing forth in bursts.
"They\'re..."
Both Yue Yin and Gu Suwan blushed with embarrassment, their hearts aflutter with peculiar emotions.
"The door, the door wasn\'t closed properly..." Gu Suwan said with a trembling voice.
"Yes..." Yue Yin trembled even more, for although she was the oldest, she was inexperienced in such matters.
"Such loud moaning… Is he really that good? Or is she just pretending…?" Gu Suwan muttered scornfully under her breath.
"It doesn\'t sound fake..." Yue Yin said subconsciously.
They exchanged glances once more, then quickly looked away.
It was too much to bear!
"I\'m going to check," Gu Suwan suddenly declared.
"Maybe you shouldn\'t?" Yue Yin said, looking down.
"I don\'t believe this!" Gu Suwan bit her lip and stealthily crept closer.
"Don\'t, please." Yue Yin waved her hand in protest, but as if possessed, she followed closely behind Gu Suwan.
It was just a short distance.
Yet, on this brief journey, it seemed they left behind all their pride, decency, and dignity.
All that remained was their awe and submission to the one who defied the heavens.
▬ι══✧⚰️✧══ι▬
"Stay sharp, activate your Yin Thunder Furnace, I\'m transferring the Seed of Creation to you."
Inside the Nine Thunders Divine Ark, Yun Xiao whispered to Cao Shuo.
"I have no energy left," she replied.
SMACK! Yun Xiao slapped her butt, causing her pain and her cheeks to swell red.
With this, she snapped back to reality, biting her lip and glaring at Yun Xiao!
Was he serious about hitting her?
Yun Xiao ignored her reaction, focusing entirely on transferring the Seed of Creation bit by bit into her Yin Thunder Furnace.
"This is the cloning talent of the Nine Thunders Sovereign, which I am now transferring into you. You have to merge your Yin Thunder Furnace with it to form nine furnaces. You need to cooperate. This is perilous; don\'t be careless!" Yun Xiao declared with a stern, cold voice.
"Yes, yes, yes..." Cao Shuo, realizing this was a chance to alter her fate, concentrated fully.
BUZZ! Surging colorful thunderlight engulfed them, forming a sphere of colorful electric energy.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! The fusion and impacts of the Yin-Yang Thunder Furnaces continued, causing the Nine Thunders Divine Ark to shake continuously, making it difficult for those standing on it to remain stable.
Whether Cao Shuo had lived her life in vain was now evident.
Amidst the roaring thunder, and under the shocking visual assault, it took Yue Yin about half an hour to catch her breath and tremble out, "I think... he might be transferring the Nine Thunders Sovereign\'s talent into my junior sister."
"It\'s starting to split..." murmured Gu Suwan as she clutched the window frame tightly.
From inside the colorful light sphere, the woman’s voice slowly shifted from a solo to a chorus.
More and more voices joined!
"It’s done!"
When Yun Xiao saw nine identical Cao Shuos arrayed before him, he finally allowed himself a slight breath of relief.
She had perfectly absorbed the Seed of Creation, each body possessing a massive Yin Thunder Furnace. This meant that under the nourishment of the Yin-Yang Thunder Furnace, her potential might far exceed the Nine Thunders Sovereign!
These nine Cao Shuos were like nine seductresses. Although split into nine, each was fully formed, with substantial heft.
The coolest part was, besides the original\'s violet curly hair and violet eyes, the other eight varied in colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, gold, and silver for both hair and eyes!
Red-haired like fire, with crimson electricity entwined, fiery and passionate!
Gold-haired shining, with golden electricity like dragons, majestic and grand!
Blue-haired and lingering, with blue electricity like water, tender and emotive!
Though identical in appearance and substance, these different avatars each carried a distinct charm...
